binfmt-464c is ELF, that means that you got a ELF executable and the kernel
can't execute it natively (reads: no builtin support for ELF).
however, if you get this from 'modprobe', probably you want to do a
alias binfmt-464c off
in modules.conf :)

know what binfmt-464c is either. I made a list of all drivers I configured
as modules for the kernel build, and it included binfmt_misc, binfmt_elf,
and binfmt_aout, and that's it. I guess what I need to know is:

kmod is a sort-of wrapper for loading modules,
extern int request_module(const char * name);
usually we use it when in another module :P
